Flow Measurement & Control


Emerson's largest Coriolis meter

May 2010 Flow Measurement & Control

High capacity delivers unmatched accuracy and immunity to process fluid changes for a range of challenging applications.

Emerson Process Management has unveiled its highest flow rate Coriolis meter to date. The latest Micro Motion ELITE Coriolis covers DN 250-300 line sizes and can handle flow rates over 3200 tons/hour. The new meter adds to the existing DN2-DN200 ELITE range, enabling Emerson to deliver one of the industry’s broadest Coriolis offerings.

Manufacturers are challenged with reducing production costs and optimising processes in tough applications that demand high, reliable production rates. Mechanical meters, with moving parts, rotating components, and ongoing maintenance requirements, do not necessarily deliver the robust performance needed. High flow rate applications demand the best possible accuracy in all conditions, especially when measuring high-value material.

This latest large size ELITE high capacity meter is ideally suited for pipelines, ship/rail loading and unloading, crude oil custody transfer, mud logging, marine, LNG, gas metering, and refinery blending. The meters have no moving parts to break or wear, deliver ±0,10% mass and volume flow liquid accuracy, ±0,0005 g/cc density accuracy, and ±0,35% gas flow accuracy.

Micro Motion Coriolis flowmeters lead the industry in quality, measurement performance, and reliability, and are part of Emerson’s broad range of intelligent, digital field devices that power the PlantWeb digital plant architecture. Further cost savings, increased plant availability, and enhanced safety and environmental compliance are achieved when the flowmeters are integrated into the PlantWeb digital plant architecture.
